I don't go around calling gay folks fags-because it's childish to demean others that way and accomplishes nothing but hurt feelings and there can't be any true discouse in such a situation. It also leaves a bad taste in my mouth,when folks go around bragging about themselves and such,I believe that humility is one of the most desirable virtues.
Yup..I know all about why the wrong side won in the Civil War,the federalists took over and things have gone down-hill since. The recent ruling in the Supreme Court against medical marijuana,using the Commerce clause,is a good example of the erosion of State's rights.
I also know full well,how hemp can be used as food,fuel and fiber,and the importance of bio-mass fuels..just yesterday I watched a tidbit in the news,with Willie Nelson showing off his fancy,bio-diesel powered bus. I also realize the pharmaceutical industry is doing their dangdest to stop medical marijuana,until they can figure out a way to control all the profits on it,however,the petro-chemical industry will always be opposed to hemp as a bio-mass,as well as the logging and paper industry. I used to roughneck in the Texas oilfields,and I'm dang proud of the good work we did,and the way we protecte the enviroment,while we were drilling. Domestic oil and gas extraction,is critical to improve our national security at this time,as well as additional refining capacity. That can be improved with the increasing use of bio-mass fuels,but until then,we have to act for our security.
Until I know more about what General Bowman said,I'll have to reserve my opinion on that. Now the,I'd like to know why you think that my support of the troops is wrong..I don't see anything wrong with sending things that they can use to make their lives a little more bearable in the war-zone. I also support their mission of freedom for all..do you not ? Do you think it's okay to allow brutal regimes and goverments,to git away with their brutal oppression ? Why should the Free World,put up with it any longer ? I cannot be satisfied with my life,knowing that there are many who are suffering at the hands of terrorists and brutal dictators..can you ?
I realize,that America needs the tree-hugger types,but they have little common sense,when it comes to conservation..and their actions are influenced by political bias and hatred. True conservation,seeks a balance with all aspects between Man and Nature...rather than simply banning Man from Nature,we need to find ways to co-exist.
Well..I'm glad to hear that for a part of your life,you had to work hard like the rest of us folks out here in the hinterland(fly-over country). I too,left home at 16 and enlisted in the Navy,at 17..because I felt the call to serve my country,like many in my family before me. So..when you speak of wealth,is it a rehtorical wealth,or real wealth ? My gal and I,share a love,that makes us the wealthiest folks in the world,in my estimation,in which case..I could be much more wealthier than you can imagine or concieve. Has your 'wealth',turned you into an aloof snob ? It kinda seems that way,when you refer to yer fellow humans,as 'piggys'.
Have a good one ...
